At the end of the day, there are only two ways to avoid damage in Cult Of The Lamb. The first is to simply kill your opponents before they strike. This works fine against weaker enemies, but against elite foes and bosses it's not an option. That's where your main survival tactic, the Dodge Roll, comes in.

This is especially true of later bosses, who will rapidly fire large numbers of projectiles to wear you down.
Healing is uncommon enough that even losing half a heart at the wrong time can put you in a bad position, so by mastering your Dodge Rolls you'll be able to keep the Lamb healthy. Fewer resurrections mean more resources and quicker access to advanced materials!
